Yes, brushed. Just let it fill the recessed "H". I had to wipe the high spots clean, that was the toughest part - wipe it without dragging up more paint from the recess. Let it dry (just a few minutes once I got the dilution right), then repeat a few coats as needed.

Yes, spray could give a cleaner surface. I figured shucks, it's black. If not glossy, perfection in the finish won't be an issue.

Driving Lean Burn '97 Civic HX, lotsa mods by now! '89 Volvo 240 is semi-retired. I did love that car though!
